To-Die-For Brookies

Brookies are a wonderful combination of a rich, chocolate brownie and a scrumptious chocolate chip cookie all combined into one delicious bar.

In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup melted butter, 1 cup white sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract; stir mixture until it is well combined. Add 2 eggs and beat well. Stir in the cocoa powder until it is well combined. Add the flour mixture, stirring well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan.

In a large bowl, beat together 1/2 cup softened butter, the light brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract; continue beating until mixture is creamy. Add 1 egg; beat about 2 more minutes until the mixture is light and creamy.

Gradually stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture until the dough is combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Carefully spread the cookie dough over the brownie layer in the baking pan.

Bake in the preheated oven, about 20 to 25 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center of the brookies comes out clean. Cool completely; cut into bars.

Recipe Notes

Tip:

Spreading the cookie dough over the brownie layer can be a bit tricky since the cookie dough is a bit stiffer than the brownie batter. I usually flatten the dough a little by hand, then lay it on top of the brownie batter. Work in sections, then use a spatula to smooth out the surface. Of course, you can always reverse the order of your brookies and simply put the brownie layer on top of the cookie layer.
